Its not :P Also have a bilge pump.

When I start to trim it up it slows down and the nose pops up causing us to fall off plane. I can't really trim up at all without it starting to do this. By the way thank you for taking the time.

When on plane it is out of the water, so much so like you mentioned when you make a sharp turn it loses contact with the water. When I lower the motor all the way, it goes the fastest, the motor very slightly leans inward, which again lets us get up to plane and go faster. So the motor being |...

I had the default prop to begin with, it was switched out with a speed prop or something like that.

Hi Dave, thanks for the follow up! Yes, it did seem to get up to plane rather than plowing through the water. Max speed was 8mph"ish" it is now 13. 'when it is calm' Max speed I reached was roughly 23mph Still considering lowering the engine down a notch, however they said it would affect...

There is a little lock that you push in when you have the trim lifted up which as you said keeps it from rocking during travel. It is removed before we even back it in the water. If it isn't removed the motor doesnt even touch the water since it can't go low enough. The guys at the boat shop...

It is an electric trim, I lower it completely with no other results. I dont think the trim can be adjusted any further.

Well, it feels like it is plowing through water, basically the front is up in the air and it goes slow. When its choppy though, the front stays down and we are able to cruise. Moving weight to the front can increase the speed maybe 1-2mph. So max is 8-10mph on calm water, 20-23 on rough. This...

Caught a couple good sized kokes and a really GORGEOUS rainbow that had a bit of gold / bronze coloring on the top. 'yes it was a rainbow :P' Macks creek, 15ft down using pink wiggle hoochie, tried spoons, wedding rings, other color hoochies, nothing but pink.

worthy12 TEACH ME!

So, I am using an Alumacraft 145 escape, 25hp motor, I have had this issue for some time just wondering if any of you have any suggestions. I go over twice the speed when the water is choppy, when it is calm I am going roughly 8-9mph. Choppy I am going roughly 20-23mph. Any ideas on what it...

thumbsup Someday... someday those fish will be mine.

What kind of rapalas? Never fished with them before, looking for some good trout rapalas, not sure what size or type to get.

Means nevermind ;) I went fishing and did pretty well.

Yes arrow rock my bad... I clicked on the wrong thread, it was 3am at the time I posted it. t4luil

Went up earlier today, water is EXTREMELY low, caught 1 perch, and 2 pikeminnows... Had a rainbow that threw the hook.

Went out last night for a couple hours, not even a nibble. Had 2 dr going, and 1 long line. "Don't worry, I wasn't fishing with 3 poles ;) I had people with me" I did get to try out my new trolling motor tho! AMAZINGLY quiet. With 3 people in the boat got it going roughly 3mph, but it was calm...

Going up mid august, hopefully the fishing will still be good. How deep is the reservoir? First time fishing it, any tips?

Thanks for the input so far.
